New issue 25012 by bijunhe: cannot load any url without doing a search  
first!
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25012

Chrome Version       : 4.0.221.8 (Linux)
URLs (if applicable) : gmail.com, facebook.com
Other browsers tested:
   Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
      Safari 4:
   Firefox 3.x:
          IE 7:
          IE 8:

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. start typing gmail.com in the address bar
2. once 'g' is type, Chrome rewrites it to "search google.com", then the
rest of typing (mail.com) becomes the key word for google search
3. hit enter and the google search starts.

What is the expected result?

Navigate gmail.com

What happens instead?

Search "mail.com" on Google.

It is REALLY annoying!!! I cannot navigate to many websites!

I also tried to launch "facebook.com", once 'f' is typed, the address bar
becomes "search on facebook.com". I must do a facebook search before I can
open its website!

I checked the options but I cannot find any way to stop this behavior!

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
